At least you can roll-dodge arrows. (I think?)

Yes, you can.

Hi,

Is it only me or when you move and someone (AI) is shooting you with an arrow, it follow you like a missile? It's doing kind of curve to hit you...

Thx

I don't see how you haven't noticed, but there's no aim in the game. Under the hood it's using a badly disguised tab targeting system.

OP, they can also go through rocks, trees, and miscellaneous other "impenetrabile" structures.

Moving will do nothing for you (forget breaking LoS), roll dodging can sometimes break the 'target lock' though.

Much of it also has to do with latency, as for your client side, it's just an animation. It either "connects" (server side) or you dodge. In either case, more often than not, that determination has already been made well before you react one way or the other.

Same hold true for other skills that are supposed to be broken via Line of Sight, yet you can't target someone through a sapling that is 98% open air.

Hit boxes are and always have been a major flaw of this game.

How pointless would it be to use a bow iff 99% of the shoots are missing you Targets in pvp

@BuggeX , they managed it just fine in the standalones. Still offered a miss chance, which got smaller as your skill line advanced. It also included "passives" which gave advanced feature, different quality of weapons (less drop), etc.

Of course, you could also target specific body parts and the damage/effect would occur accordingly. (Crit someone in the leg and they'll be limping, not sprinting, for instance.) This is also irrelevant in the current design.

Again, they could split the difference. However, since that would require better physics simulation than they currently use and the server load would be phenomenal, I don't see it happening.
